Photoshop Projects

Photoshop Project 2: Monarch Butterfly
We had to make a butterfly in Photoshop. The only colors the butterfly originally started with was orange, black, and white. What we had to do was make the butterfly's wings different colors. To change the colors we pressed Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation. to make the wings all fluttery you pressed "B" to get the brush. You then pressed option while clicking on a spot on the butterfly. Then you just click and drag where you want it to flutter.



Photoshop Project 3: Northwest

What we had to do in this project was put the word Northwest with it showing the school in the background.  We start with the background we used in project 1 and then we just go to the text tool. We adjust it so the text can go horizontal. We wright the text and change the size so it can fit the whole picture. We select everything but the word and then change the color go the selected area adjusting the opacity.



Project 4: Collage

What we had to do was photoshop the ravens head, a hall, the administration, and information areas into the school. We had to cut out the shape of the ravens head. We had to select all, and then copy it into the school. Then we had to change the flu of all the pictures to lighten the stroke of them.


Project 1:Compass
We had to put a compass and the put the letters ONW onto the school. We selected the compass with command A and then did command C to copy it. Then you had to click the text tool and write the letters ONW and change the color with the fill button.

My Cube

 
 
 
        In this project we had to make a cube. The cube is 3-dimmensional and it represents my journey here in e-communication so far. The classes I had were animation, film, and right now I'm currently in graphic design.

        My first stop was animation. Reasons I enjoyed the class was because it was making cartoons. We put in sound effects and made our very own "show," even though it was just one episode. We also got to make our very own dream house. It gave me some experience and I'm glad I got to be apart of it.

        My second stop was film. I learned how to use the cameras and learned the basics of filming. Even though sometimes the class got frustrating, it was worth it in the end. It was also an amazing when I compared my first video with my last video and I saw the improvements. I'm glad I had the opportunity to take the class and learn about film.

        I am currently in graphic design. In this class we learned about colors, shapes, types of fonts, and the organization of websites. How they make it all seem very neat and clean. We got to use Illustrator and we are currently in Photoshop. This class has been fun so far and I can't wait to learn more.
